Grrr, i used up my SNL goodwill when I went to the premiere this year! ugh, i totally would've waited HAD I KNOWN!!!!! And obama cancelled last minute on that appearance.... poor donkeykong. :cry:
Oh, DK, you underestimate your charm...Give it a try, girl. What have you got to lose? Besides, a trip to Manhatten is its own reward!

Yes! This is the best news I've heard this week! Since House will presumably be on break, here's hoping that Hugh will have the time to put comic pen to paper and write some sketches.
Didn't one of the SNL writers or actors mention that Hugh was a host that the cast loved because he came wanting to work hard and contribute ideas?
And I keep remembering his post SNL interview with Leno, mocking himself when he was advised to go on SNL and "Just have fun, that's like saying, oh just have a baby!" Hee.

Seth Meyers, in a Bill Simmons podcast from last year, briefly singled him out as one of the good ones, mentioning that Hugh pitched a sketch they wound up writing together.

I really, really, really want to see Hugh and Kanye West perform "Mother Liker" :)

iamdaffodils and I were discussing a remake of the infamous Timberlake/Samberg duet. You know the one...
ETA: And in case anyone was wondering, Stephen does in fact answer direct messages on twitter. My life is complete. Oh, and *Spoiler Alert* :) the BFFs will be together next week.

Awesome, Chippers! From the great man's fingertips to your eyes. Wow. We salute you.
And marykir that would be sooo brilliant, beyond brilliant even!

What do you mean? Someone asked him on Twitter if he was going to see Hugh and he said yes? :D

Yes. The conversation, verbatim:
Me: I know you're ghastly busy, but will you be helping your colleague prepare for SNL next week?
THE GREAT ONE: Sure will!
The end. :D Great story, no?

The end. :D Great story, no?
Short, but oh so sweet. :blushing:
Great news keep coming. I wonder if it will continue with nominations for Golden Globes. Aren't they announced next week?

Oh my gawd, that's awesome Chippers! I came on here because I just heard Hugh is going to be on SNL!!!! YES!!!! Whooo-Hooo. I'm so happy.
Now to hear Stephen is in New York, well, I'm just all giddy now. Any chance at all that Stephen might make a cameo appearance with Hugh? A Fry-Laurie comic reunion is loooooong over due.
Good to hear he's going to help Hugh out anyway.
Chipmunk_love- 12-03-2008
Good to hear he's going to help Hugh out anyway.
I mean, if he can find the time. The man is, after all, taking pictures of a "sinister" priest in a French restaurant. Who can fit friends into that kind of schedule? :rofl:

Taking pictures of sinister priests in restaurants, and then immediately posting them to the internet. I'm not sure where Hugh is going to fit in with that kind of schedule. :lol:

Someone needs to convince Stephen that the best use of his time next week is to tweet from the SNL writers room/rehearsals. And to take pictures of goofy BFFs :)
